Glacier Peak was the name stamped on this crate label, a brand that tied a Washington orchard product to the snowy volcano looming over the Cascades. Crate labels like this one were printed in large runs and pasted onto wooden boxes so that buyers in distant markets could recognize a grower's fruit at a glance. Many such labels leaned on bold color lithography, scenic mountains, and cheerful wording to stand out on a crowded grocer's shelf. Notice how the mountain imagery sells the fruit's origin as much as the apples themselves.
